It’s Cyber Monday, and even though I had written about my online store last week, there really isn’t a better day of the year to promote an online store than today! Especially since Zazzle is offering even bigger discounts today with the code CYBERMONSAVE at checkout. So if you’re interested, checkout my store at zazzle.com/jmdesantis. But if you’re still not convinced, or if you’re a Chadhiyana fan, read on. I have a surprise for you.

First, since my blog post last week, I have added three new designs to my store as well as a number of products (bringing the total to 15 designs and just under 100 products). With such numbers, there’s plenty to browse through to see if something might appeal to you or as a gift for a loved one. And by using the Collections tab to browse, it’s a lot easier to narrow your search through items (Collections allow me to group like-products together). As before, you can find my Zazzle store at zazzle.com/jmdesantis/. Though, if you want to go directly to the Collections list, you can find it at zazzle.com/jmdesantis/collections.

Also, as I wrote last week, I am available for commissions through the Holiday Season. Space is limited, so please contact me as soon as you can with your commission request(s) (commission info on jmdsantis.com/commission-requests). You can find my contact information (if you don’t already have it) on the Contact Page (jmdesantis.com/contact). Just please be sure to put “commission” in the subject line.

As for the Chadhiyana surprise, issue 5 is finally on the horizon. I know it’s been quite a long time between issues (as I’ve said in the past), but I finally got the edits back from Rosarium Publishing, made the changes, resubmitted the book and now they’ve put it up on NetGalley for reviewers: s2.netgalley.com/catalog/book/102443. That’s especially exciting because most often that means the issue will be available within three or four weeks’ time!

That said, it’s something of an exciting day for me (and possibly for you too). Please do check out the online store or consider a commission, especially today. And for you Chadhiyana readers, the wait is nearly over, as we come one issue closer to the first six-issue collection (due out in 2017).
